Little Fox | ½ of Lauralie | Ravenclaw with a Hufflepuff heart and a Gryffindor soul | #HouseNATARIANA Tessa stopped bobbing about on the spot when Anna spoke up and addressed the group. THIS WAS IT. Well, after warming up.....
Gripping her broom tightly in anticipation, she listened, her eyes darting around all the while. No one else looked especially nervous. She couldn't be the only one. She was eager to get going and fly off her nerves and she also wanted to avoid being the last to speak because, in her mind, that meant she wasn't as eager as the others, so she went ahead and introduced herself. "Tessa Roberts. I'm trying out for Chaser!!" Her voice, it seemed, had returned. She grinned at Anna. See? She was EXCITED and READY.
She copied some of the other's stretches because, while she knew how to fly and play Quidditch, she hadn't always given as much attention to stretching as she should have done. That would change NOW. Plus she was used to doing a few stretches before their morning laps.
Once everyone had introduced themselves and declared what position they wanted and she had finished stretching, Tessa wasted no more time and got on her broom and kicking off from the ground. Up, up she went. Five laps on a broom would be much more enjoyable than on foot. She sped off at a reasonable pace. The school brooms wouldn't allow her to match the speeds of some of the other players, but she wouldn't let that put her off. The blonde was small and swift. She could use that to her advantage. Speed wasn't everything. To prove it, she weaved in and out of the others every now and again. |
